Ho Le Chit
wonder what else she has been saying over the years and continuing...
Even the Spurs' psychologist has been helping Landale deal with the fact that his time to make an impact isn't quite here yet.
"She's been huge in making my mindset shift from my happiness being depicted by how many minutes I play. I've tried to move my mindset to more specific goals like body fat percentage or how much I can lift in the weight room. Goals that will lead to success and bring on minutes on the court."
As the interview when on, Landale reveals the biggest goals of his NBA career -- to have a true impact on winning as an established rotation player and to win an NBA championship. Even with some frustration, Jock is enjoying his experience with the Spurs so far and won't let a slow start in playing time affect his professionalism.
"I'll still get a bit upset about the situation and have to get some stuff off my chest, but that's only because I'm human and I'm a compe or. I love winning and that's all I really want to do in my career."

she's the pop whisperer.
I'm sure it's probably relatively normal for teams to have a psychologist on staff. what's unique imo, is having one that has to run interference for the coach's inability to play them practically at all...his time hasn't come BS...instead of personal day to day life stuff we all struggle with. No, his time should have come for a 10-17 team with less than stellar play in front of him. All around pathetic stuff from Pop
also find it interesting that Landale bugs out to Austin when he has free time, rather than hanging in the city of the team je plays for.
This article is not a good look for the Spurs on multiple fronts.
Most teams do. Not really a big deal
Oh no it's a big deal.
Wonder what other players and playing time issues she has encountered.
Wonder if Popped would talk to her or not over himself enough to.
except for pop wrecking psyches left and right.
Lol yall are ridiculous. If everyone we get is so ing mentally fragile that sitting on the bench is ruining their psyche they shouldn't be playing basketball to begin with
I'm all for ting on pops senile ass when he deserves it but trying to pin mental fragility of some players *coughLukacough* on Pop because he hurt their wittle feelings is dumb as
The level of ing about some mundane is so funny.
Minor wittle temp things?
No.
maybe he should go back to australia...he probably get a 1m contract down here not much difference to nba minimum, at least he get playing time then wasting his talent on the bench doing nothing.
Wait -- you don't think pretty much all teams don't have psychologists? Are you a ing idiot?
The mental health of this board is next to . All these posters close to going upstairs from the basement and murdering their families.
Seriously.
Some people obviously need better things to do than spending their time trying to convince everyone on a Spurs forum that the best coach in Spurs history somehow pissed in their cereal.
Give it a ing rest, already.
Spurs Talk should get a forum psychologist
Not sure to whom you addressed your question but no one here made this claim. In fact I said the following in the 3rd post:

Read better and quit being such a pop sniffer, you've evidently volunteered for laundry duty.
Pops rotations are and driving people loony.
It's clear the board at this point is full of realists and sniffers. I used to be a sniffer, but I'm glad I finally caught a whiff of the stank originating around pop and the front office and their disconnect.
gs is either super committed to his shtick or mentally ill himself. Hes been doing this for a decade
This is normal is professional sport.
You might be interested in knowing they also have a massuese
Happy Endings included?
Dumbass boomers ing about good mental health. Meanwhile they’re thrice divorced and their kids don’t talk to them.
I mean, players also really want to play because that generally affects how much they get paid.
Wvery pro team and im sure every major college programme has sports psychologists.
And also nutritionists!
Haha I though coach Pop was a psychologist no?
CIA operative.
